There were multiple genocides going on too buddy
In the 90s, I remember going to rotten.com and seeing dead bodies. Kids these days don’t know about the wild west world web.
Not to mention the granddaddy of link pranks, Goatse. This excerpt from Wikipedia gives a nice little window info how the web operated back then:
The goatse.cx image has been used by website authors to discourage other sites from hot-linking to them. By replacing the hot-linked image with an embarrassing image when hot-linking has been discovered, an unsubtle message is sent to the offending website’s operators, visible to all who view the web page in question. In 2007, Wired.com hot-linked to another site in an article about the “sexiest geeks of 2007”; the site subsequently swapped the hot-linked image with one from goatse.cx.
Man, I miss the early Internet.
Sorry bud, but I think you just used to be more innocent.
Just look at the celebrities and culture of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s… Even the whole outrage culture pushed by conservative media like Fox News also goes that far back!
The fashion of the day changes but humanity itself… not so much!
Maybe OP was simply a child then? Children arent usually exposed to / aware of the total shitstorm that is politics.
Entirely possible, but I didn’t want to assume! My dad didn’t know the Village People were gay and he was a grown adult with kids when people broke the news to him…
Whats outrageous about the village people being gay?
